US director Michael Lehmann, who directed several episodes of "Dexter: Original Sin", has also been invited as a speaker. He was already on board as director for the black comedy "Heathers" in 1988, with the then young cast of Slater, Winona Ryder and Shannen Doherty.
Slater was awarded a Golden Globe for his role in the award-winning hacker series "Mr. Robot" (2016). In the series, he plays the eponymous "Mr. Robot", who recruits a young hacker for his goals. In 2018, he starred alongside Glenn Close in the independent drama "The Nobel Prize Winner's Wife". Zoë Kravitz also got Slater in front of the camera last year for her directorial debut "Blink Twice" alongside Naomi Ackie and Channing Tatum.
